THE WHY & THE WHAT

The foundation for the people

Apex Kidney Foundation is a charitable trust founded in 2008 by 2 philanthropists and 4 nephrologists.

The foundation actively works to educate the general population about kidney diseases. It holds various seminars and conferences to help increase the core competancy of doctors and physicians. It also provides support to those who are already inflicted with kidney diseases.

EDUCATE

Right from it's inception, AKF has been trying to increase the knowledge about kidney diseases among the populance and the medical fraternity, thereby increasing the quality of dialysis and related care provided to patients.

Nephrology Board Review Course

The Apex Board Review is an annual event organisedin April-May by the Apex Academia, the academic arm of Apex Kidney Foundation. It is a four day event. The first course was organised in 2010.

Fellowship Award

The course aims at increasing the number of general physicians having knowledge of nephrology in cities as well as small towns. This especially is necessary for a vast country like India where about 1200 qualified nephrologists are serving a population of 1.25 billion. The need of the hour is to have more physicians practicing nephrology and that too in small towns.

We conduct programs and seminars for Doctors and Dialysis Technicians to help them better their skill set.

TESTIMONIALS

"Apex Swap Transplant Registry was recommended to me by Dr Tarun Jeloka, Consultant Nephrologist and Transplant Physician, Pune. For swap registration, we were asked to meet Dr Ganesh at Chembur.
With his help and cooperation in documentation work, within span of six months, my transplant was successfully done. Apex had been in forefront for getting the donor and conducting all tests as recommended.
I am highly thankful to Dr Rajesh Kumar for his support and cooperation in this transplant. Follow up from Apex was most helpful as I was a patient from out of Mumbai. I wish Apex makes awareness and provides this service to many needy people."

PSV Raman and Jayalakshmi Raman

It has been an immense pleasure learning at the Apex School of Dialysis Technology. I am highly thankful to all the faculties for making learning simple and easy to understand. This course is not only teaching us how to become a good dialysis technician but also how to take things positively and how to become successful in career and life both.

Deepak Thakur

All that is taught to me at the Apex School of Dialysis Technology is helping me a lot in my day to day practice with the patients. I have been able to understand my mistakes and rectify them because of the good healthy learning atmosphere that we have. My approach has totally changed towards patients, my coworkers and the entire dialysis unit. This course has proven to be extremely enlightening in terms of theoretical as well as practical knowledge.
